Lyrics & Translation

[Chinese]

[English]

原來年月堆積的感情 可半秒撇清

Turns out that the feelings accumulated over the years can be cut off in half a second

那些感覺 有真心過 如何確定

Those feelings, had they been truly sincere, how can we be sure

...

...

從前承諾多麼的真誠 場景遺留物證

Once, promises were so genuine, scenes leaving behind physical proof

離別以後 誰願翻開未言明的真相內情

After parting, who’s willing to open up about the unspoken truth

如果 天空海闊有你想追

If the sky and sea are vast, I’d still want to chase after you

離開 傷心總會慢慢過去

Leaving, the sadness will slowly fade away

情感 怎可以自私 施捨的也別收取

How could feelings be selfish? Don’t accept gifts that are given reluctantly

人生 都少不免挫折唏噓

Life is full of setbacks and sighs

時光 深刻的愛錄下證據

Time deeply records love’s evidence

重新 找得到自己 一生不要掉眼淚

Find yourself again; in a lifetime, don’t shed tears

...

...

還原平靜不改的表情 就此與你撇清

Restore a calm, unchanged expression, and cut ties with you here

那些感覺 有真心過 如何確定

Those feelings, had they been truly sincere, how can we be sure

...

...

從前承諾多麼的真誠 場景遺留物證

Once, promises were so genuine, scenes leaving behind physical proof

離別以後 誰願翻開未完成的心痛劇情

After parting, who’s willing to open up the unfulfilled heartbreak story

如果 天空海闊有你想追

If the sky and sea are vast, I’d still want to chase after you

離開 傷心總會慢慢過去

Leaving, the sadness will slowly fade away

情感 怎可以自私 施捨的也別收取

How could feelings be selfish? Don’t accept gifts that are given reluctantly

人生 都少不免挫折唏噓

Life is full of setbacks and sighs

時光 深刻的愛錄下證據

Time deeply records love’s evidence

重新 找得到自己 一生不要掉眼淚

Find yourself again; in a lifetime, don’t shed tears

重新 找得到自己 一生不要掉眼淚

Find yourself again; in a lifetime, don’t shed tears
